Description OSIDB Bzimport 2026-03-25 11:01:51 UTC
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

Bluetooth: L2CAP: Fix accepting multiple L2CAP_ECRED_CONN_REQ

Currently the code attempts to accept requests regardless of the
command identifier which may cause multiple requests to be marked
as pending (FLAG_DEFER_SETUP) which can cause more than
L2CAP_ECRED_MAX_CID(5) to be allocated in l2cap_ecred_rsp_defer
causing an overflow.

The spec is quite clear that the same identifier shall not be used on
subsequent requests:

'Within each signaling channel a different Identifier shall be used
for each successive request or indication.'

So this attempts to check if there are any channels pending with the
same identifier and rejects if any are found.
